Fixed asyncio.Task.cancelling issues (#790)

* Shrink TaskState to save a little memory
* Fix uncancel() being called too early
* Refactor to avoid duplicate computation
* Test TaskInfo.has_pending_cancellation in cleanup code
* Fix TaskInfo.has_pending_cancellation in cleanup code on asyncio
* Test that uncancel() isn't called too early
